Visiting a Cannabis Patient Center

Once you have your patient registry number included in your approval email, you can register with one of the state’s Cannabis Patient Centers. Be sure to bring the email, along with your state-issued identification and money to pay for your treatments — cash or debit only.

During your appointment with one of the center’s pharmacists, you’ll plan a course of treatments that best targets your condition and symptoms. Your conversation should include:

A discussion of your past and present medical condition

Health and lifestyle goals

A recommendation of specific medical marijuana products and dosages

When your appointment is over, you can purchase your meds. Each time you wish to return to the patient center, you’ll need to complete a self-evaluation form on the medical cannabis registry website.
